Subject: util-linux: /sbin/fsck.cramfs and /sbin/mkfs.cramfs depends on 
/usr/lib/libz.so.1
Package: util-linux
Version: 2.12p-8
Severity: normal

Hello,

The cramfs utilities (fsck.cramfs and mkfs.cramfs) depend on a
library in /usr:

$ ldd /sbin/*cram*
/sbin/fsck.cramfs:
        linux-gate.so.1 =>  (0xffffe000)
        libz.so.1 => /usr/lib/libz.so.1 (0xb7f6c000)
        libc.so.6 => /lib/tls/libc.so.6 (0xb7e34000)
        /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0xb7f8e000)
/sbin/mkfs.cramfs:
        linux-gate.so.1 =>  (0xffffe000)
        libz.so.1 => /usr/lib/libz.so.1 (0xb7ef0000)
        libc.so.6 => /lib/tls/libc.so.6 (0xb7db8000)
        /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0xb7f12000)
$

This is forbidden by FHS because these utilities may be needed before
/usr is mounted. As 1) I doubt that these utilities are really used at
boot (unlike real FS utilities) and 2) I don't know which is the
correct solution (move these utilities to /usr/sbin or move libz to
/lib), I have not tagged this bug as serious.

Greetings,


Fred

I am closing this since the whole /usr separation thing has gone the
way of the dodo.  These days to have a separate /usr, you have to use
an initramfs that mounts it at the same time as the root.
